Platforms is the latest work in Leddy's ongoing Aphrodite Project, which explores the cult of Aphrodite in both antiquity and present-day contexts. Leddy intendeds the work to question moral attitudes and value judgments in relation to new technologies and a specifically marginalized section of the population: Who gets new technology and when? What is the true value of sexual services? Using an archetypal model, is it possible to reclaim the profession for modern women? What are the ethics of surveillance and tracking? Is it possible to ensure that this information will empower and not endanger sex workers? Is it ever possible to guarantee that knowledge will stay within the hands of those who it is intended for?

Platforms is made possible with the support of NYSCA and the Experimental Television Center.
